HT201363 I'm unable to remember the answers to my security questions

I'm unable to remember the answers to my security questions and the email address I used is no longer active as it was a yahoo email that I had before I owned a iPad does anyone know how I can change this? I would like to use my iTunes card to purchase some music but can't get past the security question as it sends the reset to an inactive email.

If you established a rescue email address, there will be a link on the "Passwords & Security" page of id.apple.com. Clicking the link will send the reset to your rescue email address (NOTE: This is not the same address as your Apple ID email)
If there is no link on the page, then you didn't establish a rescue email address. Contact AppleCare at 800.694.7466, and ask for account security. You will need to answer some questions to verify your identity, AND you will need access to a computer to generate a temporary support pin.

I am unable to remember the answers to my security questions.

Hi! Apple is horrendous, and they will not let me purchase music due to the fact that I am unable to remember the answers to my security questions. It is requiring me to answer these questions because I am trying to purchase my music on a device that, according to the fine folks at Apple, I have never attempted a purchase on before. Contrary to popular belief, however, I have in fact made quite a few purchases on this device, but I digress. I hope that someone out there with a reasonable amount of intelligence will be able to assist me with my dilemma. Thank you, and may your midday be crammed with unfettered joy and myriad delights.

Hello Arnas333
You would need access to that account in order to reset the questions. If you do not have access to it, then you will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to resolve the issue.

How to reset your Apple ID security questions.
Go to appleid.apple.com, click on the blue button that says 'Manage Your Apple ID'.
Log in with your Apple ID and password. (If you have forgotten your Apple ID password, go to iforgot.apple.com first to reset your password with a password recovery email)
Go to the Password & Security section on the left side, and click on the link underneath the security questions that says 'Forgot your answers? Send reset security info email to [email]'. This will generate an automated e-mail that will allow you to reset your security questions.
If that doesn't work, or there is no rescue email link available, then click on 'Temporary Support PIN' that is in the bottom left side, and generate a 4-digit PIN for the Apple Account Security Advisor you will be contacting later.
Next, go to https://getsupport.apple.com
(If you see a message that says 'There are no products registered to this Apple ID, simply click on 'See all products and services')
Choose 'More Products & Services', then 'Apple ID'.
A new page will open.
Choose 'Other Apple ID Topics', then 'Forgotten Apple ID Security Questions'.
Click the blue 'Continue' button.
Select the contact option that suits your needs best.

I don't remember the answer to my security questions and I keep requesting that they be sent in an email but I don't think it's the right email. What can I do??

I want to buy a game but I have to verify my account. I don't remember the answers to my security questions and I think the answers are being sent to another email. What can I do? How can I change my answers or change my questions?? Or even just find out what my answers are??

1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
2. Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
3. Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:
